If you think you have a screen calibration problem, and can't activate the right buttons by touch the screen;I had problems with not being able to press the "Done" button at the bottom of the screen and was always selecting the button above it. It was impossible to activate the button on the bottom left of the screen. Same went for any button on the bottom left of the screen. Following some guidance from other posters, I changed the calibration.

The calibration fie is calib.txt. You will find this when you connect the unit to your PC/laptop. I suggest you make a coy of the file and call it "calib-old.txt" or similar.

Open the calib.text file. My original settings were"907 129 250 734"

I understand that these numbers somehow dictate the distance from top, bottom, left and right that the touch screen should be from the screen border. Someone else might elaborate for us. But from trial and error it is probably LEFT, TOP, BOTTOM, RIGHT

Nevertheless, through trial and error I discovered that that the "250" number was the one that affected the bottom of the screen and again by trial and error changed it to "310". Touch screen now seems to work properly. Note there appears to be double spacing between the numbers. I suggest you don't mess with that.

In that case, the touch screen is faulty and must be replaced; it's a fairly common fault and your faulty screen cannot be repaired. If you search YouTube for "Nuvi 760 battery replacement" you'll see how to dismantle your machine.

The screen is not hugely expensive and not difficult to fit, and as you obviously realise you'll need to enter the diagnostic menu after fitting to recalibrate the screen (for those reading this who are unfamiliar with this, press and hold the battery icon to access the diagnostic menus).

Although the screen isn't that expensive, consider whether to replace the battery at the same time as it's probably seen better days. But when you add the cost of the screen and the battery then if the maps on your machine are out of date then it's going to make more economic sense to buy a complete new machine.

I've similar question. My ipod touch 2 screen is very finicky! It sometime responds just fine, but other times requires multiple taps before it does it's duty. Is there a fix for this? I have tried soft resets and recalibrating. The recalibration works fine, but I don't think it should have to be done daily which is about what I'm doing now. Is there another more permanent fix for this problem?

Have you tried to recalibrate the touch screen in the Set Menu? If so, and it still doesn't respond, then the touch screen might have gone bad. This is something you should have a dealer repair. About a $200.00 repair.

It may need to be recalibrated. If you already know exactly what I'm talking about, and have already tried, then this sometimes happens with the DS. If not, start your DS without a game in either of the slots. then when you get to the screen where it says pictochat, download play, and all the other stuff, look at the middle of the bottom of the bottom screen. Press the tiny DS there. then touch the recalibrate button. Then touch the things it tells you to touch. All these steps can be done with the buttons, but use the touch screen to recalibrate. Hope this helped.

If you have any functionality at all left to your touch screen, try to recalibrate it within the settings menu. Otherwise, remove the battery, wait about 15 seconds, then reinstall.

If that doesn't help, the touch-sensitive surface glass has gone out. Apparently, this component in the first-generation Eternity has chronic failures.

Replacing it is not too much trouble for an experienced cell phone technician. But, it's not for anyone who doesn't like to tinker with small things. Here's a video demonstrating the entire process: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJpHHs9QM5U.

You need to recalibrate. Try pushing B, A, Hint, and Home when you turn it on. Do not have a cartridge in the player or it will think it is a regular Leapster. Once it says calibrate screen it will say to press A, then wait until a target appears in the upper left hand corner, touch it and you should hear a sound, then a new target appears in the lower left hand, repeat actions, then lower right hand screen, and finally the upper right hand screen. If it stops at any time and doesn't get more arrows, try it again or turn it off and see if the pen works. It may take a few tries to get it to recalibrate correctly.

Recalibration has nothing to do with repairing this problem. If the touchscreen is non-responsive, how are you going to recalibrate it when it doesn't recognize the key presses?

The problem is caused by a defective touchscreen. SHARP substitued a different touchscreen into the 6xx series that fails even when the glass isn't damaged. The problem is caused by a defect in the manufacturing process where the touchscreen connections becomes detached from the tail that plugs into the board.

The touchscreen connections between the screen and the tail are made from conductive ink that can fracture, most likely caused when pressing on the screen over time.

These defective screens can be identified by a white tail cap at the end of the tail, whereas the original touchscreens have a maroon tail cap. The original touchscreens will only fail if the glass has been broken.

Try recalibrating the touch feature. Touch screen devices need to be recalibrated ever so often. The more it is used, the more often recalibration should be done. I recalibrate my LG VU once a week. Hope this helps.
